ERP DEMO

The sgcUI ERP Demo: All 14 Products in One App

A complete business application to run, read and copy from, for Delphi, C++ Builder and .NET WinForms.

Altamira ERP is the demo we use to prove the suite works as one. It is a real application, not a gallery: a sidebar with ten modules, a top bar and a status bar, a light and a dark theme, and a data layer with 60 customers, 18 providers, 48 products and more than 500 invoices over 24 months. The data is generated from a fixed seed, so every run shows the same numbers. In Delphi the modules bind to in memory datasets, which is the same code you write against your own database.

The demo ships for Delphi (VCL, Win32 and Win64), C++ Builder (VCL) and .NET WinForms (.NET 8). Each module is a separate unit, so you can lift a screen into your own project: the dashboard, the invoice PDF, the Gantt chart or the approval workflow. Beyond the modules below, the demo has Products (catalogue grid with EAN-13 and QR codes, stock gauges and a PDF sheet of labels), Providers (rating and lead time filters, a chart and a map), Users (role tokens and an org tree) and a New customer wizard with per step validation and a map to pick the city.

Customers
A grid grouped by region with counts and totals per group, sorting, filters and a highlight when the balance passes the credit limit. The side card edits the rating and the credit limit in place and centres a map on the customer. New opens the wizard.
Built with sgcGrid, sgcEditors, sgcMaps, sgcWizard.

Invoices with PDF
The invoice list with status, totals and payments. One click builds an A4 invoice in code, with the lines table, the VAT summary, a SEPA payment QR code and a Code128 barcode, and shows it in the PDF viewer inside the module.
Built with sgcGrid, sgcPDF.

Projects Gantt
Six projects with summary rows, finish to start dependencies, progress, a Go-live milestone and the today line. The critical path of the remaining work is drawn in red, and bars can be dragged to replan.
Built with sgcPlanner, sgcToolbar.

Orders Kanban
The sales pipeline as a board with six stages, from Lead to Delivered. Cards show amount, priority and owner, columns show their WIP limit, and dragging a card to another stage updates the order.
Built with sgcPlanner.

Approval workflow
A purchase approval flowchart built from data, with done, current and pending steps, decisions and captions on the links. Selecting a request in the grid highlights its step. A second view draws the organisation chart with an automatic tree layout.
Built with sgcDiagram, sgcGrid.

Analytics
A pivot of every invoice line by region, category, year and quarter, with a field list to drag fields, a heat map and a drill down grid that lists the invoice lines behind the selected cell.
Built with sgcPivotGrid, sgcCharts, sgcGrid.

Input, Data and Output

Across the suite, sgcUI also covers the smaller needs: controls that take user input, data binding that follows the dataset both ways, and more ways to get a screen out of the application.

sgcGauges: four input gauges, a knob, a slider, a toggle switch and a push button, operated with the mouse, touch, the wheel and the keyboard, in every edition. Skins (Classic, Modern, Industrial, ISA101, Dark or your own) give every gauge a new look, and TsgcGaugeDataLink binds a gauge to a dataset field and writes user changes back.
Live and two way data binding in Delphi: the sgcPlanner DataSet source reports, refuses and reverts writes and throttles live changes, sgcDiagram follows its datasets and writes the nodes and links back, sgcPivotGrid and the sgcDashboard data source follow a dataset with a throttle. sgcDiagram, sgcPivotGrid, sgcGauges and sgcDashboard have the same binding in .NET.
sgcPlanner: Outlook recurring series in the Microsoft 365 sync, reminders sent to Google Calendar when an event is updated, and a capacity per resource for the load histogram.
sgcDashboard: publish a dashboard as one HTML page with SVG tiles, and the map tile on WPF and Avalonia. Maps now appear in the dashboard print, PDF and HTML output.
sgcWizard: slide and fade page transitions that respect the reduced motion setting of Windows, and a summary page that lists what the user entered, with an Edit link per page.
sgcReports: scripts in the report definition with events on the report, the bands and the items, a script editor in the designers, and the FireMonkey preview on macOS, iOS and Android.
sgcPDF for .NET: the WPF and Avalonia viewers edit annotations and fill forms, as the WinForms viewer does.
sgcPDF: a signature pad that puts a handwritten signature into the visible field of a digital signature, and an image viewer and editor that crops, rotates and annotates photos and scans and exports them to PDF, on VCL, FireMonkey, WinForms, WPF and Avalonia.
Accessibility: the UI Automation tree of every product demo was checked with a UI Automation client, and the issues found were fixed.

SHARED FOUNDATION

Why the Suite Looks and Works as One

Every sgcUI product is built on the same runtime, sgcUICore. It owns the canvas, the rasterizer, the colours and the themes, so a grid, a gauge and a Gantt chart placed side by side share fonts, spacing, accent colour and focus style. The picture shows the same ERP dashboard twice: the left half in the light theme, the right half in the dark theme, switched with one call at run time.

One call themes the whole application: sgcUISetApplicationTheme(utDark), or sgcUISetApplicationThemeFollow(utfSystem) to follow the light or dark setting of Windows while the application runs. Each control's Theme defaults to utDefault (follow the application) and still takes utLight, utDark or utCustom.
Two theme presets: Classic, the default look, and Fluent, the look of Windows 11 in light and dark. sgcUISetApplicationThemePreset(CS_UI_THEME_FLUENT) switches every control, and you can register your own preset with the colours and corners of your brand.
One drawing engine, so the screen, a PNG file and an SVG file show the same pixels.
Headless rendering on every product: build images on a server or in a service, Linux64 from Delphi 10.2.
The same names in .NET: the C# port keeps the class, property and event names, so code and help carry over.
One help system for every product, with Delphi, C++ Builder and .NET versions of each topic.

Classic or Fluent: Theme Presets

A theme preset decides the colours, the corners and the focus ring that the light and the dark theme use. Classic is the default and draws exactly as before, so an existing application does not change. Fluent gives every sgcUI control the look of Windows 11 with one call, on VCL, FireMonkey, WinForms, WPF and Avalonia.

Fluent: the Windows 11 colours in light and dark, corners of 4 pixels on editors, focus rings and tag chips and of 8 pixels on dashboard tiles, Kanban cards and Kanban columns, and the two tone focus ring of Windows 11.
The Windows accent colour: Fluent paints with the accent the user chose in Windows, a darker shade in light and a lighter one in dark. An accent set by the application still wins, and Classic keeps its fixed accent.
Follow Windows while the application runs: in Delphi, sgcUISetApplicationThemeFollow(utfSystem) switches the controls between light and dark when the user changes the Windows setting. It is off by default, so existing applications keep their theme. The .NET controls follow the light or dark theme of WPF, WinForms or Avalonia, as before.
Window frame: VCL, FireMonkey and WinForms forms get a dark title bar while their theme is dark, on Windows 10 version 1809 and later, and Fluent gives them round window corners on Windows 11. The sgcNavigation tabbed form and the sgcToolbar ribbon form go further: they draw a themed title bar of their own, with the tabs or the quick access toolbar in it, the themed caption buttons and the Windows 11 snap layouts.
Your own preset: start from the Fluent or the Classic definition, change the colours, the accent or the corner radii, and register it under a name with sgcUIRegisterThemePreset, or sgcUIApplication.RegisterThemePreset in .NET.
Windows high contrast still wins over every preset, and the presets are in every edition, Community included.

The Theme Gallery demo puts a grid, editors, a gauge, a dashboard and a Kanban board on one screen and switches the preset, the theme, the accent and high contrast while it runs. It ships for Delphi VCL, FireMonkey, C++Builder, WinForms, WPF and Avalonia.

Read the theme presets help topic

The sgcUI Theme Gallery demo on Delphi VCL with the Classic preset in light: a grid with tag chips, editors, a radial gauge, dashboard tiles and a Kanban board — Classic, the default: the sgcUI look of the earlier versions, unchanged.

The same Theme Gallery screen with the Fluent preset in light, with the Windows 11 colours, the Windows accent colour and rounder Kanban cards — Fluent light: the Windows 11 colours and corners, and the accent colour of Windows.

The same Theme Gallery screen with the Fluent preset in dark, with the Windows 11 dark colours — Fluent dark: the same controls in the Windows 11 dark colours, switched while the application runs.

Fluent in Every Product, with VCL Styles and Host Colours

Choose Fluent once and the whole application looks like one Windows 11 application: every sgcUI product takes the corners, the hover and pressed states and the dividers of the preset, the controls can take the colours of a VCL style, WPF or Avalonia, and the text uses the Windows 11 font. Classic still draws exactly as before.

Every product follows the preset: Editors, Grid, PivotGrid, Planner, Dashboard, Navigation, Toolbar and Ribbon, Wizard, Charts, Gauges, Diagram and the Reports designer get the rounded corners, the hover and pressed fills, the dividers and the line widths of Fluent, with no change to your code.
VCL Styles: on Delphi XE2 and later, sgcUISetApplicationThemeFollow(utfHost) makes the sgcUI controls turn light or dark with the active VCL style and take its colours and its highlight colour as the accent. The corners, the focus ring and the font stay those of the preset. Under the Windows style, and on Delphi 7 to XE, it follows Windows.
Host colours in .NET: under Fluent, WPF on .NET 9 and later with its Fluent theme (Application.ThemeMode) and Avalonia 12 with FluentTheme give the sgcUI controls their backgrounds, borders, text and fills, so the controls match the rest of the window. WinForms follows the light or dark colour mode.
Segoe UI Variable: Fluent draws with Segoe UI Variable Text on Windows 11, Segoe UI on Windows 10 and the embedded Roboto on the other platforms. A font the application sets always wins, and your own preset can name its own font list with sgcUISetThemePresetFontFamily.
PDF viewer and maps on the theme: with UseUITheme the sgcPDF viewers take the colours of the application theme around the pages, and the zoom buttons, compass, layer switcher, scale bar and attribution of sgcMaps take the colours and corners of the preset, on every platform (VCL, FireMonkey, WinForms, WPF and Avalonia). The pages and the map content keep their own colours.
Live title bar: an open WinForms form follows every later change of the theme, the preset or the follow with its dark title bar and Windows 11 corners, and WPF and Avalonia windows get the same frame from sgcUIApplyWindowFrame.

The Theme Gallery demo for Delphi, C++Builder, WinForms, WPF and Avalonia now has Document, Map and Controls pages next to the Overview, with the PDF viewer, a map, a navigation bar, a ribbon, a toolbar, a wizard, a pivot field list and a validation summary. The VCL version adds Follow host and a list of VCL styles.

Read the application theme help topic

The Controls page of the sgcUI Theme Gallery demo on Delphi VCL with the Fluent preset in dark: a navigation bar, a ribbon, a toolbar, a wizard, a pivot field list with a pivot grid and a validation summary — Fluent dark on the navigation, ribbon, toolbar, wizard, pivot and validation controls.

The Document page of the Theme Gallery demo with the Fluent preset in light: the sgcPDF viewer with UseUITheme showing a customer statement generated in code — The sgcPDF viewer with UseUITheme takes the colours of the application theme.

The Map page of the Theme Gallery demo with the Fluent preset in dark: an sgcMaps map with themed zoom buttons, layer switcher, compass, scale bar and attribution — The sgcMaps zoom buttons, compass, scale bar and attribution on the Fluent dark theme.

The Overview page of the Theme Gallery demo following the Amethyst Kamri VCL style: the grid, editors, dashboard, gauge and Kanban board take the colours of the style — Follow host: the sgcUI controls take the colours of the active VCL style.

RIGHT TO LEFT

Right to Left Languages: Arabic and Hebrew

Every sgcUI product runs right to left user interfaces on VCL, FireMonkey, WinForms, WPF and Avalonia, driven by the direction property each framework already has.

Set BiDiMode in VCL and FireMonkey, RightToLeft in WinForms or FlowDirection in WPF and Avalonia on a form or window, and every sgcUI control on it follows. Left to right applications draw exactly as before.

Real shaping: Arabic letters are joined, ligatures and marks are applied, and text is never drawn mirror written.
Bidirectional text: mixed Arabic, Hebrew and Latin runs are ordered with the Unicode bidirectional algorithm (UAX #9), and each text takes its direction from its first strong character.
Mirrored layout: grid columns, sidebars, toolbars, legends, steppers and editor buttons move to the opposite side, while time axes, dials and maps keep their meaning, as in Excel and Outlook.
Numbers stay readable: values formatted from numbers, dates, times and currency, such as 12:30 or 1,234.50, are drawn as left to right runs and never reorder.
Automatic font fallback: when the font of a control has no Arabic or Hebrew glyphs, sgcUI adds a platform font such as Segoe UI or Tahoma the first time such a text is drawn.
Mirror the content too where it makes sense: MirrorPlot for charts, MirrorTimeline for the Gantt time axis and MirrorGlyph for directional toolbar icons. sgcReports and the sgcPDF writer shape Arabic and Hebrew text in their documents as well.

Read the right to left help topic

The sgcUI right to left demo on Delphi VCL in Arabic, with the navigation sidebar and the Gantt task grid on the right — Arabic on VCL: the sidebar, the toolbar and the Gantt task grid are mirrored, the time axis keeps running left to right.

The sgcUI right to left demo on Delphi FireMonkey in Arabic, with KPI cards, a gauge and an area chart — Arabic on FireMonkey: KPI cards flow from the right, and numbers such as 64.2k and +8.4% stay readable.

The sgcUI right to left demo on Delphi VCL in Hebrew, with an orders grid whose first column is at the right — Hebrew on VCL: the grid columns flow from the right, while order numbers, dates and amounts stay left to right.

PRINT AND PDF

Print, Preview and Accessible PDF

sgcGrid, sgcCharts, sgcPivotGrid, sgcPlanner, sgcDiagram, sgcGauges, sgcDashboard and sgcMaps print, show a print preview and export to PDF with the same members on VCL, FireMonkey, WinForms, WPF and Avalonia.

Call Print, ShowPrintPreview or ExportToPDF on the control. One set of page settings, PrintSettings, drives the printer, the preview and the PDF, so the preview shows exactly what the printer and the PDF get. A page shows the content of the control, not the screen: the scroll position, the selection and an open editor are not printed.

Printing and the print preview are part of sgcUICore and are in every edition, Community included. In FireMonkey, printing works on Windows and macOS, and the preview and the PDF export on every platform.
The preview has page navigation, zoom, page setup, printing and PDF export, as a dialog or as a control on your own form or window.
Paper, orientation, margins and scaling, plus header and footer text with the title, the date, the page number and the page count.
Real text in the PDF: the fonts are embedded as subsets, so the text can be searched and copied. Grid, pivot grid, chart, planner, diagram and gauge pages are vector drawings, and dashboard and map pages are pictures at 192 dpi by default.
Accessible by default: the PDF is a tagged PDF/UA document. Grids and pivot grids become real tables with header cells, and charts, gauges, diagrams, planner views, dashboards and maps get an alternative text built from their content.
PDF/A-2a and PDF/A-3a for archiving, alone or together with PDF/UA. In Delphi and .NET, also PDF/A-4 and PDF/UA-2.
The PDF export comes through the sgcUIPDF bridge with a licensed sgcPDF: add the unit sgcUIPDF_Export in Delphi and C++ Builder, or the NuGet package esegece.sgcUICore.sgcPDF in .NET. It is not in the Community edition.

ACCESSIBILITY

Accessible by Default

Every sgcUI product exposes its content to Microsoft UI Automation, the API that screen readers such as Narrator and NVDA use, works with the keyboard and follows the Windows high contrast themes, on VCL, FireMonkey, WinForms, WPF and Avalonia, with no setup and in every edition.

The components expose their content to Microsoft UI Automation, the accessibility interface of Windows that screen readers such as Narrator and NVDA and the testing tools of Microsoft use: a grid is exposed as a table with rows, cells and headers, a chart as a list of series and points, a planner as a list of items, and so on. Drop a control on a form and it is accessible. While no accessibility client is running the support costs nothing, and one global switch turns it off for the whole application.

VCL: UI Automation in every supported Delphi and C++Builder version, from Delphi 7 to Delphi 13, with the same behaviour in every version.
FireMonkey: UI Automation on Windows. macOS, iOS and Android are not covered yet.
WinForms: every control serves its own UI Automation provider, so a grid has the Grid and Table patterns. WPF and Avalonia: every control returns an automation peer, and one peer per item it draws.
Keyboard: moving tiles, cards, appointments and shapes, drawing links and moving pivot fields and grid columns all have keyboard alternatives, and every interactive control shows a visible focus ring. A few operations still need a mouse: sgcGrid column width resizing, sgcCharts zoom and pan by mouse and the financial drawing tools, and sgcDiagram connector bend points.
High contrast: under a Windows high contrast theme the controls paint with the colours the user chose in Windows, without a restart and without code.
Right to left layouts and high DPI are supported, and the position of every element reported to UI Automation follows the layout and the monitor DPI.
Every edition has the full accessibility support, the free Community edition included, and it is on by default.
The UI Automation tree of every product demo was checked with a UI Automation client on VCL, FireMonkey, WinForms, WPF and Avalonia. The fixes: the VCL editors announce the label of the field instead of its value, a flat navigation bar is a list rather than a tree, the WinForms and WPF status bars no longer take the keyboard focus, the cells of the Avalonia grid no longer repeat their column name, and the chart points and other drawn items of the Avalonia controls report their position on screen.
The sgcPDF viewer and the sgcReports preview are not covered. The PDF files they produce can be accessible themselves.

eSeGeCe publishes an accessibility conformance report (VPAT 2.5, international edition) for each platform, covering WCAG 2.1, the Revised Section 508 standards and EN 301 549, as a web page and as a PDF.

AI

Ask the Data, Paste into Forms

Users ask sgcGrid, sgcPivotGrid and sgcDashboard a question in plain language and fill forms and planner items from a pasted text, on VCL, FireMonkey, WinForms, WPF and Avalonia, with the LLM you choose and in every edition.

The AI features of sgcUI are not tied to one AI service. They talk to a provider component, so any LLM works: TsgcUIAIEventProvider hands each request to your own code in one event, whatever service, model or on premises server you call, and the sgcUICoreWS bridge adds TsgcUIAIChatProvider, which uses the TsgcAIChat component of sgcWebSockets on every platform.

The AI query bar: TsgcVCLAIQueryBar, TsgcFMXAIQueryBar on Windows, macOS, iOS and Android, TsgcWinFormsAIQueryBar, TsgcWpfAIQueryBar and TsgcAvaloniaAIQueryBar. Type a question, press Enter, read what was applied, Cancel a running question and Undo the last answer, with recent questions and suggestions. It works with the keyboard, screen readers, high contrast and right to left layouts.
Ask the grid: TsgcGridAI turns a question into filters, sorts and row highlights. With no provider, a rule based parser answers locally with no network and no API key.
Ask the pivot: TsgcPivotGridAI turns a question such as top 3 countries by sales per quarter into a pivot layout.
Ask the dashboard: TsgcVCLDashboardAI and its FireMonkey and .NET twins send a question to the grid or pivot tile that can answer it, bring that tile into view, and explain a KPI card from its title, value and trend.
Smart Paste: TsgcVCLSmartPaste, TsgcFMXSmartPaste and the WinForms, WPF and Avalonia components turn a pasted text, such as an e-mail or an address block, into values for the controls of a form, sgcEditors controls and the standard edit, combo, check box and date controls alike, with a Smart Paste button and Undo.
Smart Paste in sgcPlanner: Ctrl+Shift+V on the Scheduler, Gantt or Kanban view creates an item from the pasted text or fills the selected one, with Undo.
Privacy: a question sends only the field catalog, the names, captions, types and a few sample values of the fields, never the row data. Smart Paste sends only the pasted text and the field descriptions. KPI values never leave the application, and OnBeforeAsk can edit or cancel every request.
Every edition, the free Community edition included. The ready sgcWebSockets provider is in the Registered editions and needs a registered sgcWebSockets: sgcUICoreWS in Delphi and C++ Builder, the esegece.sgcUICore.sgcWebSockets package in .NET.

HMI PACK

Process Screens and Operator Panels

The HMI pack adds an ISA-101 look, tank and process symbol gauges, P&ID stencils with flowing pipes, an ISA-18.2 alarm list, a touch NumPad and an on-screen keyboard to the products you already use, on VCL, FireMonkey, WinForms, WPF and Avalonia.

sgcUICore: the ISA-101 suite preset turns every sgcUI control grey and flat, and keeps colour for abnormal states and alarms.
sgcGauges: a tank and vessel gauge, and a process symbol gauge for valves, pumps, motors, fans, heat exchangers and sensors, with live data through the sgcGaugesWS bridge.
sgcDiagram: 56 P&ID stencils, and process states and animated pipes through the status binding.
sgcGrid: an alarm model with the ISA-18.2 states, a grid link and an alarm menu, with an acknowledge log.
sgcEditors: a NumPad for touch panels that types into the editors, a standard edit and the input gauges, and a full on-screen keyboard with ten layouts for kiosks and touch screens.

REALTIME UI

Presence, Notifications, Activity and Live Logs

The Realtime UI pack adds who is online, toasts and a notification inbox, an activity feed with an audit trail and a live log viewer to the products you already use, on VCL, FireMonkey, WinForms, WPF and Avalonia.

sgcUICore: a presence model, avatars, an avatar group with a "+N" chip and a presence indicator, in every product.
sgcNavigation: a notification model with an unread count, toasts, a notification inbox grouped by day and notification preferences per category and channel.
sgcToolbar: a badge link that shows the unread count on a toolbar or ribbon item.
sgcDashboard: an activity model, an activity feed and an audit trail, as controls and as dashboard tiles.
sgcGrid: a log model and a log link that turn a grid into a live log viewer with follow tail, pause, level filter and export.
Live data: the sgcUICoreWS live sources feed every model from WebSocket, MQTT or server-sent events of sgcWebSockets, in the Registered editions.

The products share data sources, themes and rendering, so the common combinations take a few lines instead of glue code.

Grid, pivot, chart
The invoice lines feed an sgcPivotGrid, and the sgcCharts stacked bars follow the pivot layout: expand a region, filter a segment or drag a field, and the chart redraws.
Run the `sgcUIERP` demo

Gauges inside dashboard tiles
Any sgcUI control can live in an sgcDashboard tile. Here a radial gauge tracks the quarter against its target and linear gauges compare each region with last year.

Three planner views, one data object
Scheduler, Gantt and Kanban read the same planner data. The ERP Planning module switches between the deliveries calendar, the projects Gantt and the orders board with one toolbar.

Reports with charts, out to PDF
sgcReports prepares a grouped sales report with KPI boxes and an sgcCharts band, previews it in the app and exports the same pages to PDF through sgcPDF, or to an XLSX workbook.

WHAT IS SGCUI

One Suite, Every Toolkit

sgcUI shares one runtime, sgcUICore, with the canvas, the rasterizer and the light and dark themes, so every product looks and behaves the same in every framework.

Delphi and C++ Builder

VCL controls with the TsgcVCL prefix and FireMonkey controls with the TsgcFMX prefix, from Delphi 7 to Delphi 13 and C++ Builder 2007 to 13. Full source code in the Source editions.

.NET

A C# port with the same class names for WinForms, WPF and Avalonia 12, on .NET Framework 4.7.2 and .NET 8, 9 and 10, with MVVM binding, Visual Studio designer support and the light or dark theme of the host followed by default. Free Community packages on NuGet, paid packages with source code.

Headless rendering

The framework neutral units render grids, charts, gauges and dashboards to PNG and SVG with no window, for reports, e-mails and web endpoints. They also compile for Linux64.

Built for live data

Grids and charts take updates from any thread and coalesce them into timed repaints, so a feed of thousands of updates a second still renders at a steady frame rate.

SGCWEBSOCKETS BRIDGES

Live Data from sgcWebSockets, Straight into the UI

Bridge packages connect sgcUI to sgcWebSockets. They ship with the registered editions and need the sgcWebSockets package of the same Delphi or C++ Builder version.

sgcGridWS

Grid feed sources for WebSocket, MQTT and SSE, and an AI query that answers questions about the rows.

sgcChartsWS

Chart data sources fed by sgcWebSockets connections.

sgcDashboardWS

Dashboard tiles bound to live sgcWebSockets feeds.

sgcGaugesWS

Gauge values driven by live sgcWebSockets messages.

sgcPivotGridWS

TsgcPivotGridAIQuery: AI pivot layouts through a TsgcAIChat of sgcWebSockets.

sgcUICoreWS

The ready AI provider: the TsgcAIChat of sgcWebSockets answers the AI query bars, Ask the grid, the pivot and the dashboard, and Smart Paste.

sgcPlannerWS

Two way sync with Google Calendar, Outlook and Microsoft 365 and CalDAV servers, and iCal subscriptions for the planner.

sgcReportsHTML

Reports served as HTML through the sgcHTML and sgcWebSockets stack.

EDITIONS

.NET

sgcUI for .NET: Community and Registered

The same components as a fully managed C# port for WinForms, WPF and Avalonia, delivered as NuGet packages. Start free with the Community packages, and move to the registered packages, with full source code, at the same prices as the Delphi editions.

Community (free)

Each product with a Community build has the same package id with the .Community suffix, for example dotnet add package esegece.sgcGrid.Community. The Community builds leave out a few advanced features per product, such as in place editing in sgcGrid or the financial series in sgcCharts.

View on NuGet →

Registered

Every feature, full source code and 1 year of updates, as editions (Standard, Professional, Enterprise) or as single packages. Install with dotnet add package esegece.sgcGrid.WinForms (or .Wpf, .Avalonia).

.NET prices →

MVVM binding and designer

Grid, pivot grid, charts, planner and diagram bind ItemsSource in WPF and Avalonia or DataSource and DataMember in WinForms, with columns, fields and series declared in XAML under one xmlns:sgc namespace. The WinForms controls have smart tags and collection editors in the Visual Studio designer, and the controls follow the light or dark theme of WPF, WinForms or Avalonia.
